Shostakovich's ballet, The Golden Age, was written just as Stalin was really getting going in the Soviet Union. The unlikely story line has a Soviet soccer team visiting an American city, at the same time as a Golden Age Of Industry Exhibition. From this unlikely source, Shostakovich creates a full ballet of wonderful, witty, and often beautiful music.
